Guide

The manga consist of a total of 38 volumes and spans a total of 343 chapters. The manga was first published a chapter a week in the magazine Weekly Shonen Jump in 1996. It is still being published in that magazine now. About every nine weeks, the past chapters are collected and complied into one volume. This is so far my most favorite media of Yu-Gi-Oh. It has a story line and not just dueling monsters and there is plenty of character development. The last chapter of the first manga (as there is Yu-Gi-Oh! R now as well) was first published in the Weekly Jump volume released the week March 22, 2004.

VIZ is currently publishing the chapters in an American version of Shonen Jump.
